I used to have a really cluttered desktop and just recently wiped everything. Somehow it feels much nicer.

Is that a PC running some kind of OS X graphic lookalike thingy?

I've got Objectdock and my taskbar is set to autohide, otherwise it's a standard XP setup.

I don't play on Battle.net. I play single player or with a couple friends of mine over TCP/IP games.

There are more amusing icons than D2LOD in these shots.  At least D2 had an ending.

No wonder you have a fucking sty.  You got some chibi in it.

No, I'm not posting mine.  Multiple reasons.

I'll spare you all a picture of the work desktop.  The IT nazis have us locked-down so just picture the standard windows blue screen with some shortcuts to folders, and icons for AutoCad, Beamcheck, MECCheck and StruCalc.

Woo!

Work desktop, cluttered and boring. Much like the home desktop, really. Web host cut down pixel size from 1650 across ;)

Morph, you can put the Applications folder in your desktop to cut down in icons, you can rt-click it and access the folder. You can also toss the file server link on the dock. I've got Apps, Server Apps, and the file server shortcut in descending order after the divider. And for shame with System Preferences, that's on the Apple menu :P

I really need to change that wallpaper, it's been there for ages :)

As a matter of fact I swallowed one of these about two hours ago and the explanation is that it is, in fact, my hand.
